Building the AI research infrastructure behind a media-studies lab — turning fragmented archives into something you can actually ask questions of.
- Built a mobile-gaming research archive indexing 1,000+ titles with Next.js, TypeScript, and DynamoDB, making historically fragmented metadata searchable.
- Cut researcher lookup time ~70% by replacing keyword search with Gemini function-calling for cross-entity semantic queries across games, devices, and publications.
- Reduced interaction friction ~60% with a voice-driven conversational interface built on Whisper and ElevenLabs.
